The English-taught Postgraduate Certificate in Public Procurement (20-30 ECTS), jointly organised by the Brussels School of Governance and Lexxion, allows students to gather specialised knowledge in the field of public procurement law and policy. The programme distinctly focuses on the European dimension of public procurement. It is fully accredited and is offered as a fully online programme, complemented with a few physical / networking events in different cities across Europe.

Public procurement in the EU is a multi-billion euro sector and this Certificate addresses the current gap between the required knowledge to work in the field and the lack of formal and professional training focused on EU public procurement.

This programme is aimed at working professionals or part-time students who would like to develop a distinct profile in EU public procurement. Whether you are planning a future career in the growing public procurement sector, or you are already working in that field and want to extend your knowledge - this programme is designed for you. Diverse previous backgrounds are accepted because the programme will begin by explaining the basics of public procurement.

The Brussels School of Governance is an alliance between the Institute for European Studies (Vrije Universiteit Brussel) and Vesalius College. This Postgraduate Certificate in Public Procurement is a programme of which the degree will be awarded by Vrije Universiteit Brussel.
